Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Urbanization can alter the interplay of evolutionary processes such as natural selection and genetic drift, but these effects will depend on the biology and history of a species. To explore the influences of drift and selection in an urban context, we investigated patterns of flower colour variation among stands of the introduced ornamental mustard Hesperis matronalis along an urban-rural...
